Hospital Flower Delivery, Gold Coast

We deliver flowers to Gold Coast hospitals six days a week, from our shop on Orchid Avenue in Surfers Paradise. Everything bound for a ward goes boxed and finished, so it can sit on the bedside table with nothing to find first.

Which hospitals do you deliver to?

These six most often:

• Gold Coast University Hospital
• Gold Coast Private Hospital
• Southport Private Hospital
• Pindara Private Hospital
• Robina Hospital
• John Flynn Private Hospital

We deliver to other hospitals, clinics and day surgeries across the Gold Coast too. Delivery is the normal fee for that suburb, from $12, and our delivery page lists every postcode.

What can you actually send to a hospital ward?

Boxed arrangements, flowers in a vase, plants, fruit and small gifts. Not wrapped bouquets. That is not a preference, it is practical: a hand-tied bouquet arrives needing a vase, water and scissors, and a ward has none of those going spare. Everything in our get well collection arrives finished, with nothing to do to it.

Some wards do not take flowers at all

Intensive care, oncology, and some maternity and surgical wards restrict fresh flowers. The policy differs between hospitals and it changes from time to time, so it is worth a quick call to the ward before you order. For the public hospitals, Gold Coast Health publishes visiting information covering Gold Coast University Hospital and Robina.

If flowers cannot be accepted, we bring them back and call you. Nobody is charged for a delivery that could not be made. Where flowers are out, a fruit hamper or a teddy almost always gets through and still says what you meant.

What we need from you

The patient's full name as the hospital has it, the ward, and the room or bed number if you know it. A mobile number for the patient or a family member helps more than anything else, because wards move people. Put it all in the delivery notes at checkout.

Timing

Order before 2pm, Monday to Saturday for same-day delivery. If someone is being discharged, send to the home address instead: a delivery that arrives an hour after they leave helps nobody.

Sending to a maternity ward

Congratulations. Choose something soft and boxed from our new baby collection, and check the ward's policy first, because special care nurseries almost always say no to fresh flowers. A teddy or a balloon is the reliable alternative and a new parent will take either.
